Jesus is the high priest of his people, and he summons us to participate in his ministry and reign as members of his priestly kingdom .

Prêtre et Sacrifice

Jésus est le souverain sacrificateur de son peuple, et il nous appelle à participer à son ministère et à régner en tant que membres de son royaume sacerdotal .

Il est aussi l'Agneau sacrificiel qui nous a rachetés pour Dieu par sa mort et nous a transformés en un royaume de prêtres, faisant briller sa lumière pour illuminer un monde sombre.

The Messianic Lamb

Jesus is the Lamb and the true Messiah of Israel. He was sent by God to redeem men from every nation by his sacrificial death .

Jésus est l'Agneau et le vrai Messie d'Israël. Il a été envoyé par Dieu pour racheter les hommes de toutes les nations par sa mort sacrificielle .

Par sa mort, Jésus a racheté son peuple, et à cause de son “ obéissance jusqu'à la mort ”, Dieu a exalté Christ et l'a fait Seigneur sur toutes choses:

The Son of Man

Image
Revelation’s first vision presents Jesus as the Son of Man, the high priest who watches over his people – Revelation 1:9-20. Jesus is the faithful high priest who oversees the churches of Asia (Revelation 1:10-3:22), and he is the Son of Man who will return in great glory to gather and vindicate his saints. In chapters 2 and 3, he sends each of the seven congregations a letter of encouragement, correction, and promises for faithful Christians.
